Why do you link _against_ C libraries?  Surely you link _with_ them,
unless you're talking about joining in some sort of conspiracy to
suppress their use.

Like, if you're in a large folksy sort of dance where everybody links
arms with their neighbours in a big circle, you never say they're
linking arms against their neighbours.  They link arms with them.
